Zone1 Evolution of Rational Theism beyond Christianity gave us America

I can't follow your goofy formating.
That is not my problem - you run away whether I use a reference system or not with my posts.

Christianity, the “Body of Christ” gave mankind “original sin” to contend with and for which Catholics like Saint Ding are “baptized” when they are babies to save their dead souls.

That ritual of Christian baptism had nothing to do with the founding, origination or creation of the United States of America.

Saint Ding’s proclamation that Christianity gave us America is not connected to any basis in reality, fact or truth.

If Saint Ding could back up his white Christian nationalism nonsense - Ive seen his work - he would do it.

It is your problem. You need me.

Then ignore it. Problem solved.
Americans have been ignoring white Christian nationalism!’s lies for too many generations.

You are a WCN leader through apologetics for Catholicism Saint Ding. I am more than happy to continue exposing your absurdities. Just because you cannot defend yourself doesn’t mean I should quit..

Really? I thought I was a semi-retired oil and gas engineer. Are you going to save America from Christianity?
 
Are you going to save America from Christianity?

America does not need to be saved from Christianity. It is a great religion. It just is not the one and only true religion.

America Needs to be saved from white Christian nationalism propaganda was founded as a Christian nation. That’s because it was not founded as a Christian nation..

Rational Theism had much more to do with the founding of America than christianity . Salvation by the blood of Jesus Christ; the son of God, born of a virgin a couple thousand years ago; had absolutely nothing to do with the founding of America.

A people without a heritage are easily persuaded, no?

Is rational theism based upon a moralistic and providential creator?

Rational Theism is simple really: as Thomas Paine declared in a “profession of faith”:
I believe in one God, and no more; and I hope for happiness beyond this life. I believe in the equality of man; and I believe that religious duties consist in doing justice, loving mercy, and in endeavoring to make our fellow-creatures happy.​

Rational theism invites one to seek truth by applying reason to incredibility and najesty of nature. There is no revealed religion shortcut to truth - you have to seek it to find it.

Heritage is fixed but the bad parts are repairable. What white European Christians did under Popes Luther and monarchies to non-white peoples is no Christian heritage to be proud of. or swept under the rug. That is what white Christian nationalists unfortunately do.

The Founding Fathers, Deism, and Christianity. WRITTEN BY: David L. Holmes
The Founding Fathers, Deism, and Christianity | Christianity, Enlightenment & Religion | Britannica

Although orthodox Christians participated at every stage of the new republic, Deism influenced a majority of the Founders. The movement opposed barriers to moral improvement and to social justice. It stood for rational inquiry, for skepticism about dogma and mystery, and for religious toleration. Many of its adherents advocated universal education, freedom of the press, and separation of church and state. If the nation owes much to the Judeo-Christian tradition, it is also indebted to Deism, a movement of reason and equality that influenced the Founding Fathers to embrace liberal political ideals​
 
Not for this Christian.
Yet Saint Ding is not transformed to pure reason as homage to nature’s god. Can’t live without his chewed up pacifier - revealed religion.

CHANGING THE 18TH CENTURIES VIEW OF LIFE

"In My Judgment, Thomas Paine Was the Best Political Writer That Ever Lived. What He Wrote Was Pure Nature, And His Soul And His Pen Went Together. Ceremony, Pageantry, And All the Paraphernalia Of Power Had No Effect Upon Him. He Examined Into The Why And Wherefore Of Things. He Was Perfectly Radical In His Mode of Thought. Nothing Short Of Bedrock Satisfied Him"1. Robert G. Ingersoll

Why don't you google rational theism and post that?
